    Why This Podcast Was Born : How It Saved My Life

    This episode is about why I started this podcast. Not for numbers.
Not for approval.
Not to say the “right” thing. I started it because I needed somewhere to tell the truth. The truth about survival.
The truth about living in a hurting body.
The truth about surgery recovery, chronic pain, mental health, grief, exhaustion, motherhood, trauma, healing, and all the invisible battles people carry while the world keeps moving. I know what it is like to have a body that has been through a lot. I know what it is like when physical pain starts bleeding into your thoughts.
When anesthesia, recovery, fear, fatigue, and pain make you feel unlike yourself.
When your body is hurting and your mind gets tired of fighting with it. And I know what it is like to survive things that changed me. Losing my eye as a young girl.
Becoming a teen mom.
Walking through hard seasons that demanded strength before I even knew I had it. There have been moments in my life when survival was not beautiful.
It was messy.
It was painful.
It was getting through one more day. And that is why I am going to keep recording this podcast. No matter what. If people do not like what I say, so what.
If they do not agree with me, so what.
If my truth makes someone uncomfortable, that does not mean I am supposed to stop telling it. I am not here to make everyone comfortable. I am here to use my voice. Because somewhere, there is a person listening from a hospital bed, a recovery room, a dark bedroom, a parked car, or a place in their own mind they do not know how to climb out of. And maybe they need to hear this: You survived. You are alive now. You have today. What are you going to do with it? This podcast was born from survival, but it has become something more. It has become a place where I can turn pain into purpose.
Where I can say the things I wish someone had said to me.
Where I can remind the person living inside a hurting body that their life is still here. And somewhere along the way, speaking became part of my healing too. This podcast did not just give me a platform. It gave me a reason to keep showing up. So I will keep recording.
I will keep telling the truth.
I will keep speaking about surgery recovery, chronic pain, mental health, resilience, healing, survival, and what it means to keep choosing life after life has tested you. Because if one person hears this at the exact moment they are thinking about giving up, then every word was worth saying. You survived. Now what are you going to do with today?

    One Decision Can Change Your Life : Have the Courage to Stop Tolerating What No Longer Serves You!

    You Get to Decide: The Power of Choice, Courage & Taking Your Life Back What are you tolerating because you believe you have no other choice? In this episode of Live by Faith, Tricia shares a powerful conversation about free will, personal responsibility, money, courage, and the decisions that shape our lives. From the fear of not having enough money to the temptation to stay silent when something feels wrong, this episode is an invitation to notice where you may be giving your power away—to circumstances, fear, scarcity, other people, or the belief that your voice does not matter. Tricia shares honestly from her own season of having less financially while refusing to let that stop her from writing, creating, speaking, serving, and living fully. She explores what can happen when we stop allowing money to lead our decisions and begin choosing from faith, courage, gratitude, and personal conviction instead. This episode is a reminder that change begins with the choices we make every day: what we speak up about, what we no longer tolerate, where we ask for help, how we show up for one another, and what we decide is possible for our lives. Your circumstances may influence you, but they do not have to define you. You still get to decide. Email: Tricia.SW properties@gmail.com.! Please share or leave a review on this episode if anything I’ve said resonates or feel inspired to make a new decision!

    Imagine it can be easy to shift your mindset

    What if life doesn’t have to be hard? In this episode of Aligned by Faith, I’m inviting you to look at one of the beliefs so many of us have carried for years: “This is going to be hard.” We’ve been taught that change is hard, growth is hard, life is hard, and struggle is simply part of the process. But what if that isn’t the only story available to us? Yes, we can do hard things. We are resilient. We can move through difficult seasons, challenges, loss, uncertainty, and change. But that doesn’t mean we have to approach every new experience already expecting it to be hard. What if instead of saying, “This is going to be hard,” you asked: What if this is interesting?What if this is growth?What if I’m learning something new?What if this gets to be gentler?What if life can also be joyful, playful, peaceful, beautiful, and abundant? In this episode, we’re talking about the stories we repeat, the language we use, and the beliefs we may be carrying without realizing how much they shape the way we experience our lives. I’m also sharing why I’ve chosen to move away from living through pressure, fear, worry, and constant struggle—and toward a life rooted in more love, ease, grace, peace, joy, and presence. You are allowed to change the story. You are allowed to believe that life can hold beauty alongside hardship. And you are allowed to stop making things harder before you’ve even taken the first step. If you’re ready for support in changing the way you see yourself, your life, and what is possible for you, you can learn more about my Happiness and Peace program and my mentorship opportunities through the links in the show notes.

    When Things Go Missing

    Then I get personal. I share a moment where I put my prosthetic eye out, came back, and it was gone. I walk through exactly what that triggered — the panic, the frustration, the struggle — and the choice I made in that moment to not stay stuck in it. I talk about asking for a different perspective, working through my own mindset, and landing somewhere unexpected: remembering I had a backup, realizing I have eye patches as an option too, and most importantly, recognizing I feel secure enough in myself that I could walk out the door without it at all if I had to. This episode isn’t really about an eye. It’s about what we do when the thing we thought we needed disappears — and what we find out about ourselves in that gap. If this resonates with you, or you’d like to apply for Royal Courage, or you just want to share feedback or ask a question, email me at tricia.SWproperties@gmail.com.

    When God Answers in Unexpected Ways: The Blessings We Don’t See Coming

    Have you ever found yourself trying to figure out the “how”? How will I afford this? How will this work out? How will I take care of everything on my plate? In this episode, I’m sharing a personal story about surrendering the things I couldn’t control and trusting God with the outcome. I had been wanting clarity around my health and was considering investing thousands of dollars into a brain scan. Then, in a way I never expected, God opened a door and provided an opportunity I couldn’t have created on my own. It reminded me that sometimes we are carrying the pressure of figuring everything out when God is inviting us to release the how and trust that He is already working. But here’s what I’m learning: receiving the blessing is only part of the journey. We also have to have the courage to walk through what comes next. That’s why I created Royal Courage. A space for women who are ready to stop living from fear, pressure, and self-doubt and start building a life rooted in faith, courage, and trust. Inside Royal Courage, we focus on the heart work, mindset, and intentional practices that help you move forward with God instead of staying overwhelmed by everything you’re carrying. If you feel like God is calling you into your next season, I’d love to invite you to join me. You don’t have to have it all figured out. You just need the courage to take the next step. 🤍 Email Tricia @ Tricia.swproperties@gmail.com Apply here to Join Royal Courage: https://royal-courage-guide.lovable.app
